What does Bergamot & Hinoki smell like?

Longevity and sillage are rated weak, so it stays close to the skin, a view that is consistent even if the number of voters is small. Its light build suits everyday wear and quiet settings, and it reads neither masculine nor feminine.

It opens with citrus in front: grapefruit and bergamot give a fresh, slightly bitter start. At the heart, hinoki cypress and vetiver set a green, woody backdrop, which amber, eucalyptus and orange blossom soften in the base. The overall impression is fresh, green and faintly floral. Le Labo Bergamote 22 and Acqua di Parma Colonia Il Profumo have a close profile.
